Any of you survivors in Oz could ace the interview by pointing out all the research possibilities I have pointed out.

Science jobs from Hunter Medical Research Institute:
The Centre for Translational for Brain Repair and Rehabilitation (CTBRR)
located at the University of Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia has
two full Ph.D. scholarships available and open to both domestic and
international applicants. The successful applicants will be supervised
by Dr Rohan Walker (Senior Research Fellow) and Professor Michael
Nilsson (Director of the CTBRR and the Hunter Medical Research
Institute).
The project associated with the scholarships will utilise animal models
of stroke to examine how the recovery environment, following
experimentally induced brain injury, can be modified to optimize
recovery and brain repair. In examining brain repair, the projects
focused on the role of glia and will make extensive use of a recently
established multiphoton real time brain imaging platform.
The students will be supervised by both clinical and basic scientists
and will be encouraged and supported to undertake some part of their
research project at an nationally or internationally recognized centre
for stroke research affiliated with the CTBRR. The objective of this
international placement is to develop the candidate's own research
network, and enrich the quality and scope of their research.
Scholarship The successful applicant will be supported
by a scholarship for three and a half years at $25,000 per annum
(tax-free), with the opportunity to apply for a 6 month extension. If
the successful candidate is an international student, Overseas Student
Health Cover will be provided for the duration of their candidature. A
full tuition fee scholarship will also be offered to successful
international candidates (domestic students undertaking a Research
Higher Degree are not required to pay fees). Funding will also be made
available to assist with relocation and establishment.
Application We are seeking applications from
individuals who are interested in undertaking research who have
completed an undergraduate degree in Biomedical Science, Psychology,
Medicine or equivalent with first class Honours, or Masters. Ideally,
preference will be given to applicants that have had experience with
animal handling (rats and or mice) as well as immunohistochemistry and
immunofluorescence. They may also have experience with cell culture and
basic molecular biology.
Strong proficiency in English is essential (an ILETS
score of 6.5 overall with no subtest less than 6.0; or a TOFEL overall
score of not less than 93; see also
http://www.newcastle.edu.au/policy/000104.html for more details).
Interested applicants should send Dr. Rohan Walker a copy of their CV,
academic transcripts, and English proficiency transcript (not required
to domestic applicants) to (brain.repair.recovery@gmail.com).
Further information about the Centre for Translational Brain Repair and Rehabilitation (CTBRR)
The CTBRR is located within the Hunter Medical Research Institute
(HMRI), a joint venture between the University of Newcastle and the
Hunter New England area health service. The research undertaken by the
centre is interested in developing optimising multi-modal approaches to
adapt the physical and social environment to improve recovery from
Stroke.
Use the labels in the right column to find what you want. Or you can go thru them one by one, there are only 29,116 posts. Searching is done in the search box in upper left corner. I blog on anything to do with stroke.DO NOT DO ANYTHING SUGGESTED HERE AS I AM NOT MEDICALLY TRAINED, YOUR DOCTOR IS, LISTEN TO THEM. BUT I BET THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET YOU 100% RECOVERED. I DON'T EITHER, BUT HAVE PLENTY OF QUESTIONS FOR YOUR DOCTOR TO ANSWER.
Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.
What this blog is for:
My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.
